The Effect of Silk on the Stabilization of Labile Enzyme Lipoxygenase
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Entrapping lipoxygenase within silk significantly extended its stability from under 24 h to 10 days. Variations in silk molecular weight and freeze‐drying conditions influenced silk properties and enzyme interactions. This stabilization is leveraged to develop a linoleic acid electrochemical biosensor, integrating lipoxygenase with horseradish ...

Lipid content and biomass analysis in autotrophic and heterotrophic algal species [PDF]
, 2016 Biofuels are a form of renewable energy derived from living matter, typically plants. The push for biofuels began in order to decrease the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere, as biofuels are essentially carbon neutral.
